Genshin Impact: I am an ordinary executive

"Lady Fininna, please stop here. A surprise can only be called a surprise if it is revealed at the last minute. Revealing it in advance would be a bit of a letdown.

I believe that the omnipotent gods have seen a corner of fate, so they met the travelers here? I am also lucky enough to glimpse a little bit of the starlight of fate, which predicted an epic judgment.

The duel between you will soon be staged again, and fate will bring everyone to the stage... Before that, how about we wait for good news?"

The goal had been achieved, so Zuo Xi naturally did not intend to continue making trouble with Fu Nina. Anyway, they would soon face off in court over the "serial disappearance of girls case", so it was time to create some mystery and put an end to this farce.

Anyway, Zuo Xi has almost figured out the personalities of Du Fontaine and his group of unruly people. Since they like dramatic developments and performances, just give them dramatic developments.

Destiny is a very suitable word for the stage, isn't it? Finina will also cooperate with him, because she will definitely not miss this opportunity to please the people and consolidate her status and identity.

After all, something as mysterious as fate is very compatible with gods.

In addition, there was another reason why Zuo Xi said this - he wanted to arouse Funina's curiosity and test her purpose at the same time.

Fate is fixed in Teyvat. Just like a prophecy, a true prophecy cannot be violated.

Prophecy... This is a word with a unique meaning in Fontaine. It symbolizes a word that has nothing to do with itself - destruction.

If, if the reason why Funina was in the position of God was related to the prophecy of the destruction of Fontaine, then the other party would have a certain interest in him, and would investigate and approach him openly or secretly, and then it would be convenient for Zuo Xi to observe the other party in reverse.

He is different from Arlecino. Although he has stealth skills that will never reveal his Dawn, his way of gathering intelligence is to wait for the opponent to take the bait.

Throw out the bait and wait for the fish to bite. You don't have to do anything, just wait patiently.

After all, squatting is too tiring. It's okay to do it on a whim sometimes, but if he treats it as a regular method... then he will have to ask the Queen to pay overtime pay.

What? You ask why she is still called Her Majesty?

These are two different matters. He calls her Her Majesty the Queen, and Her Majesty the Queen respects him as the master. Everyone has their own opinions.

"Eh... ahem, I mean... that's right! Just as the elegant astrologer said, I, the god of Fontaine, Fukaros, received the revelation of fate last night and came to meet my destined opponent.

Today is not the moment of prophecy, please wait for the epic and magnificent trial with expectation and enthusiasm! "

Fu Nina was stunned for a second, and then, just as Zuo Xi had expected, she performed a prophetic poem in a gorgeous tone that made people's blood boil.

See, that’s what he said.

Funina left the stage after a gorgeous finale, and at the end she said she would go to watch Linny and Linnette's performance.

After Funina left, everyone dispersed in an expectant atmosphere, each doing their own thing, leaving only Zuo Xi and his group still there.

"...I know you have a lot to say, and I roughly know what you want to say. But Lady Funina is such a god, very special, right?

But she is very popular in Fontaine. Normally, if you want to see her, you have to make an appointment several months later. "

When Linny saw Paimon and the Traveler standing there with complicated expressions, he knew that they must be very eager to complain at this moment.

There is nothing that can be done about it. After all, Lady Funina is a very unique person even among the gods, but she is also truly loved by the people of Fontaine.

Otherwise, the traveler would not have drawn his sword and almost caused public outrage.

"He is indeed a very special god... Zuo Xi, you must not become like that... Uh, you can't become like Wendy and Zhongli... It's best not to become like Ying, and the little grass god..."

As Paimon was talking, he realized that he seemed to have already named the dishes of all the gods he knew, so he silenced himself.

If you think about it carefully, the gods of Teyvat don't seem to be very reliable? Could it be that this is the normal state of being a god?

Wow, that's too scary... Suddenly I feel a little worried about the future of Teyvat.

"God is not destined to be what people think he is. From this point of view, Funina is indeed a very special existence."

This time, Zuo Xi did not laugh at Paimeng, but answered the question with a little more seriousness.

"You mean that Funinna is what a god should look like in the eyes of the people of Fontaine?"

Ying sensed Zuo Xi's hidden meaning, and after thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be true. Rather than saying that the people were blindly following Funina, it felt more like Funina was trying to please the people of Fontaine.

If we start from this point of view, Funina is unexpectedly reliable in a sense... I always feel that this conclusion is a bit absurd.

"That's right... Never mind, let's not talk about this. Linny, Linnette, I heard you guys have a performance?"

Zuo Xi stopped there and did not continue to delve into the topic. He did not intend to make public the fact that Funina was not a god for the time being.

Before figuring out the other party's purpose, any rash action that would escalate the situation would be foolish. He was confident that he would bear the consequences of any rash action, but even so, it did not mean that he was willing to bear it.

Who likes to lose money when they have nothing to do?

"Yes, my brother! My brother and I will be performing at the Opiecle Opera House in a while... Can we talk about the details when we get home?"

When it comes to the performance, Linnet, who had always been a little indifferent, finally showed a little excitement. She thought her brother didn't pay attention to these things, but she didn't expect that he actually noticed Lady Funina's last words.

However, although Linnett really wanted to continue this topic with Zuo Xi right now, some things were not suitable to be said in public.

"Eh?! Zuo Xi, you actually have a home in Fontaine? Or is it that...that...Sandonie's hometown is actually in Fontaine?"

Paimeng's train of thought is indeed beyond the reach of ordinary people. How could she extract the key word "go home" from the previous sentence?

I didn't see this guy who was just joining in the fun react to the "magic" and "performance"?

"It's the 'home' that Linny told us about before... But Linny, can we go there too? It should be a place like... a base, right?"

Zuo Xi was relieved that Ying's brain circuits were relatively normal... although being relieved because of something being normal was itself very sad.

"Why are you pretending? Don't you think you're being too pretentious by still talking about these things now? You weren't this cautious and polite when you visited my workshop... But there's no need to be so hasty now.

Linny, aren't you still handing out magic pockets? Let's finish your work first and then go back together."

Zuo Xi rolled her eyes at Ying. You are only pretending to be reserved now. Do you have any shame? You were not so reserved when you swiped my card. You didn't even say a word when you ate my meal... What? You know how to pretend now?

Let's get back to the topic of the magic pocket. Although he didn't think the magic pocket was of any use, in his opinion it was just a reasonable plot to let Ying know the universality of the prophecy.

But Linny and Linnet's intentions were genuine, and he wasn't such a bad guy as to discourage children's enthusiasm.

"Okay, Brother-sama, we'll be done soon."

Linni was not polite to Zuo Xi. To be precise, no one among the Fatui would be "polite" to Zuo Xi.

When you need to be polite, [Mortal]... [Mechanic] will give you instructions. And at other times, you just need to do what the adults say and they will do it meticulously.

When it comes to obeying Zuo Xi's orders, children like Lin Ni who come from a "family" will be extra serious. Although they will be more humane, they will not have any hesitation or doubt when executing orders.

It is the same now. Although this is not an order, since Brother-sama thinks it will not delay the time, then it will definitely not happen.

He didn't need any meaningless excuses - and he believed his brother didn't need them either - Linnie just needed to do what the other party said.

"What is a magic pocket? Linny, are you going to hand out magic props on the street for street performances?

Paimeng is really a curious baby. He always asks when he doesn’t understand something and never wastes time on internal affairs.

"It is indeed a magic prop. Its characteristic is that it looks small, but its storage capacity is quite good. We plan to distribute these magic pockets. At least if the residents living by the sea plan to move, this thing will definitely come in handy."

Linnie enthusiastically answered the question for Paimon. It was not a big deal, and these two were his brother's close friends, so he naturally had to be nicer.

"I see! You guys are really nice people... Hmm, I'm getting more and more confused about what kind of group the Fatui are... Anyway, let's help too!"

……

"Who is that person... "Prophecy", he mentioned the prophecy..."

Does he really have the ability to predict the future?

After returning to Momang Palace, Funina lay down on the bed during the rest time and couldn't help but recall what had just happened.

At first, she was still thinking of a suitable reason to complete the "duel" with the traveler. Otherwise, if it was left unresolved, the people would be disappointed and their identity would be shaken...

But the well-dressed Liyue man turned the topic to "fate" and mentioned "prophecy"... If he really has the ability to predict, then the other party is most likely an astrologer.

In the past five hundred years, I have sought help from astrologers, but they can't see through Fontaine's future.

After all, according to the prophecy, this was a punishment from heaven, and it would be strange if ordinary people could see through it. The astrologer she hired couldn't even see through her... It seems that the curse that the other one cast on her was indeed of god-level.

Well, that makes sense. That scary guy probably just made up a random excuse to avoid a big mess... After all, she wasn't so easy to be predicted, so how could the other party get the prophecy about her?

Funina, oh Funina, stop having such unrealistic fantasies... But if this is all true, then shouldn't I get in touch with the other person?

Although the hope was slim, Furninna still had fantasy in her heart.

No, no, that guy is too scary. If I talk to him face to face, I will definitely have nightmares at night, right? He must be talking nonsense just to evade responsibility. Don't take it seriously... Don't take it seriously!

……

“It’s taking longer than I thought.”

Paimon wiped the non-existent sweat to show how tired she was at the moment.

After all, from distribution to insufficient materials, to collecting materials in person, and finally to distribution after production, there were many more steps than she expected, so she inevitably felt more tired than expected.

But in fact she was just flying around and pulling some weeds at most.

"I can't tell how tired you are... But then again, you two are used to running errands. Keep up the good work. I hope you can keep this good habit after winter."

Zuo Xi sat at the tea table the whole time, watching everyone working hard, while he drank tea and ate snacks on the side.

He really wasn't busy when he said he wasn't busy, but he never said he would help. He was already giving me face by eating snacks and drinking tea.

"You are a lazy bum who never works, so you have no right to say that about Paimon! Humph, you still want us to go to Winter Solstice to run errands for you? No way! Unless... unless you give Paimon something delicious to eat!"

Paimeng's map of Yan State was a bit short, and the last sentence completely exposed her desire. She was drooling greedily, and after flying for so long, she had already been drooling over Zuo Xi's snacks and tea.

"Eat, eat. It's better to eat more. Then you can save me one person's meal money... I was planning to treat you to a good meal and taste the specialties of Fontaine.

I didn't expect Paimon to be so considerate? He can just use some snacks to get rid of it... Hmm? Eat, why don't you eat? I have unlimited supply here."

Paimeng had already started eating before Zuo Xi finished speaking, but when he heard about the feast halfway through, he immediately stopped what he was doing with his hands and mouth.

"No, I'm not hungry yet... Hey, Zuo Xi, let's go to Fontaine quickly, okay? I've researched it in the newspaper before, there's a restaurant called "Debo Hotel" here!"

Paimeng rubbed his hands and feet and moved closer to Zuo Xi, with a fawning look on his face like a flying lackey... That's not the right way to say it, as it seemed like he was scolding Zuo Xi as well.

"You are spineless... Let's go, Zuo Xi. I'm hungry... Let's go to that "Debo Hotel"!"

While Ying mocked Paimeng's spineless behavior, she confidently led Zuo Xi to the road.

What is this? This is called living off someone for free! This is called backbone!
